Conduction system pacing with AV node ablation versus catheter ablation for treatment of persistent atrial fibrillation in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction
Abstract:Funding Acknowledgements
Type of funding sources: None.
Background
In patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (PeAF) and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) current guidelines recommend treatment of AF with catheter ablation (CA) (1). Recurrence of either AF or atrial flutter, often requiring additional procedures, are not uncommon, thus optimal long-term treatment of these patients is still unknown. Rec… Show more
